“I find it so sad to see all those rpers who obviously have desperately unhappy, maladjusted, real lives. They get by each day just by being on tumblr, even though it still leaves them unhappy. This place sucks the life out of people, but the saddest stay because they have nothing else. They try to hiatus multiple times but come back days later, they delete and restart their blog multiple times, but nothing changes. They’re /dragging/ themselves through. I just want them all to enjoy real life!“

AND DON’T LIE.

“I understand people have had bad experiences with ocs but making such bold statements in rules like “will never interact with an oc because bad experience” or “all ocs are crap no thanks” things like that, is really shitty. There ARE good characters out there. I work so hard on making mine as detailed and original as possible without overstepping. It sucks to be lumped in with the ones you see as bad. Also all canons are ocs just published. oc = original character.“

“Tumblr rp is so high maintenance, it becomes soul destroying. No one sticks around for long. New people follow but within a month their blog is abandoned. It used to be you had a LOT of long-time followers who had known your character for the beginning, but now it’s a constant turnover, and you can’t repeatedly reblog the same stuff, and no one is interested enough to look back through tags, so a lot of it feels wasted: missed by almost all. Hardly a soul even reads rules & bio. It feels futile.”
